Drivers are advised to avoid the area. It is not clear how long the roadway will be closed. The crash is on the Beltway between the Cabin John Parkway and the American Legion Bridge. Several trucks are involved and hazmat crews are helping emergency responders at the scene. A truck is on top of two cars and another truck is leaking fuel, according to Pete Piringer, a spokesman for the Montgomery County Fire Department.
Update: Mont Co. Right shoulder open, outer loop on the American Legion Br. Major delays will continue. #mdtraffic#mdotnews db
Here’s a look at the scene, which is nothing but traffic, traffic, traffic:
wild scene on the outer loop in #Potomac, inner loop is rubbernecking #vatraffic delays from #TYSONS! #breakingnews
Standstill before American Legion Bridge (outer loop) drags on. Put it in park. @First4Traffic
The closure comes as tens of thousands of people the highways for the Thanksgiving holiday. It’s not going to be pretty.
